The Ohio-based company's president, Walden O'Dell, sent out afundraising letter for President George W. Bush's re-electioncampaign, saying his company was committed to "helping Ohio deliverits electoral votes" for Mr. Bush.

And the first time the Diebold machines were used in a major election,in Georgia in 2002, the election delivered surprise upset victories totwo Republican congressmen.

They even have paper to go along with the machines. It's the perception of possible conflict of interest with Diebold that should have had a red flag. Why did Dieboldget the contracts and not any other company?
